It's a ribbon that hats direct gave me, their compliments. I fitted it myself instead of their stock ribbon that came with the hat. Don't know what it is, though. It has vertical ribbing and no bound edge.
I'm still uncleart as to what exactly classifies Petersham. Is it a type of ribbon, a brand, does it have ribbing and/or a bound edge, etc.

No one seems to have the definitive answer. Not to mention the exact details of the Raiders hat. I've never seen a good enough picture of the Raiders ribbon to know it has ribbing; however, I do know that it had a bound edge, whereas the TOD and Crusade ribbons did not.

Sorry to ramble, but I'm frustrated with this ribbon issue. I wish I knew the correct Raiders ribbon. I've even heard from one source that the original wasn't even Petersham.. I think on Indygear,someone quoted Mr. Swales saying that, but I may be wrong.
